I've been keen to get back out and about for some time, so I'm very excited to be attending the BLACK COUNTRY BOOK CON in Dudley on 23 March.
JONATHAN GLAZER's THE ZONE OF INTEREST is remarkable. One of the most disturbing films I've seen in a long time.
Thanks to Mathew F. Riley of www.myfacerunsred.com for sending me a copy of the fantastic 2024 HORROR DIARY.
Just before I left for Sweden last week, I read DAN HOWARTH's excellent novel, TERRITORY. Maybe I should have held off until I got back...
Personal posts are few and far between here, but I couldn't let the events of last week pass without a mention.
THE LAST BIG THING - a collection of my favourite short stories with a gloriously scummy cover - was published 5 years ago today.
I've seen plenty of GODZILLA movies that I've enjoyed, but I've never been completely blown away by any of them. Until now.
I don't tend to make resolutions. It's always felt a bit weird that we should change our behaviours because of the position of the planet.
I wanted to wrap up the year with a Christmas story, but wasn't sure. Richard Curtis romcom or folk horror? I think you can guess which.
